Last night, while showering, I was thinking about shampoo, and how my girlfriend is allergic to lavender, and how whenever I accidentally use a shampoo or a soap that has lavender in it, her face turns red and gets itchy and so on.

And then I started to think about allergies in general, and I started to think about the human condition and general malaise, and then I started imagining a person who was allergic to everything.

I started dreaming up this story wherein the main character is a person who is completely allergic to every possible allergin on planet Earth.

The character's name would be Elmer and the story would be called Allergic to Life.
